Chapter 14: Quarters

"It's almost time for the ultimate showdown, we have 8 contestants left challenging for the title. We will start with Goku against Trunks. The champion will surely not underestimate his challenger if he has seen his last fight."

Goku walked next to Trunks as they got into the ring. Their eyes just met for a split of a second but both knew the other was in excellent shape. They powered up till they had reached their limits. Trunks' long hair had gone up but two locks of hair were in front of his blue-green eyes. He took of his CC jacket and his muscles were awesome. His form was flawless now as the sparks came out his trained body. Goku's Super Saiyan 3 was surrounded by the red Kao Ken aura. It was hard to tell who of them was the strongest in power now. Trunks charged at Goku but ended up hitting air. Goku reappeared above Trunks as he tried to kick him in the neck. Trunks let himself fall to the ground and pushed back up again then so he could Goku with full force. Goku took his leg and swung him around but Trunks fought the centrifugal force and kicked Goku so that he could free himself from his grip. Both warriors pulled back and Trunks prepared his famous Burning Attack move. Goku held his arms in front of him, trying to fight the power of the blast. Goku was sliding back to the edge of the ring but then threw the blast far away in Heaven (literally and figurative and it may have bombed King Kai's Planet once again). Goku was looking for fresh air but Trunks already attacked again.

"Triple Buster."

Goku's eyes widened as he saw the blast nearing like a high speed train.

"50 times Kao Ken Attack," Goku yelled as he flew right through the attack.

Goku powered up to prepare his Super Dragon Fist Explosion Attack. Trunks pulled out his sword and released every ounce of ki into it. Goku came like a madman and the dragon appeared behind him. Trunks wanted to block Goku and the collision released a tremendous force. Goku had saved some energy but Trunks did an acrobatic move to get in Goku's back. Trunks was still in the air and put his both hands in front of him, making a large ball of energy. Goku felt this and his hands appeared from behind his back.

"KA ... ME ... FINAL ... HA ... ME ... FLASH ... HAAA."

A blue wave and a yellow flash touched and it was hard to tell who would win. Trunks got forward and had the advantage but then Goku also did. Both fighters were trying to put even more energy into their blasts and were sweating heavily. Then the blasts exploded and everyone was blinded by the flash of light. Both warriors were bruised and lying on the ground. At his last gasp Trunks fired a final blast that sent Goku out of the ring.

"Have you seen those incredible fighting scenes? Trunks is the winner and will take on the winner of the match between Tien and Piccolo."

Piccolo and Tien got forward, two very respected warriors from Earth who had earned their strip many times before. They both transformed to their Super forms. Piccolo had a golden aura and Tien a silver one.

"Masenka," Piccolo yelled as he shot at Tien.

"Not bad Piccolo but try catching this," Tien said as his hands formed a triangle.

Piccolo blocked the Tri Beam by only using his aura energy. The Namekian now charged at Tien with a kick to the stomach. Tien's face didn't show any sign of pain and Piccolo got back with a smirk on his face.

"Seriously Tien. You thought I would fall for such a trap."

"Well, I'm ready when you are."

"Yeah, let's do this while we're still young."

They both powered up some more and were now both surrounded by a blue aura.

'Must think of move he won't expect ... Multi Form? No he can do the same.'

"Kamehameha Wave."

Tien fired off an incredible attack that left Piccolo stunned for a second. Then he did an instinctive move and blocked the wave with everything he had. Tien now tried to take advantage out of Piccolo's little error and continued firing Tri Beams. The Z-Fighters had become familiar with this Rapid Fire technique when they met Vegeta. Piccolo blocked the small blasts with his aura which seemed to be growing after every hit. He was finally able to get rid off the Kamehameha and continued the fight. He got two fingers on his forehead and started gathering energy for a Special Beam Cannon. Tien was exhausted from just before and needed a break.

"Solar Flare."

Piccolo got blinded and Tien wanted to knock him out of the ring. Piccolo of course sensed Tien nearing and fired trusting his feelings. Tien had lost this one by an error normally kids don't even make.

Now Piccolo and Trunks would fight for a spot in the final. But first Gogeta had to fight Uub and then Goten would challenge Vegeta.

Uub entered the ring, his hair and eyes brown but his aura had a slightly bronze shine in it. Gogeta came, as usual, behind his opponent in a slow pace (maybe a way to save energy). They immediately shifted into high gear trying to place fists and feet wherever they could. Uub looked really confident because it seemed like he was just warming up. They went on like this for half an hour but then Gogeta backed down. He was gathering energy for a Kamehameha and Uub followed his example. They both fired but Gogeta decided to double the power of his blast. Gogeta got one arm in front of him and fired an extra Big Bang Attack (that makes Big Bang Kamehameha). Everyone thought Uub would be overwhelmed by this and was a goner. Uub however surprised the crowd by taking the blast on one arm and then throwing it away. He just looked up for a short time and met Gogeta's eyes. They betrayed his feelings as he looked scared and angered. Gogeta got really afraid when he saw Uub's eyes had turned red.

"Why are you constantly changing?"

"I'm not. This is just warm-up ... for me. I don't need my full power against you."

Gogeta got enraged by the hearing of these words cause this meant Uub was just toying around with him. He reappeared behind Uub and fired through him. Gogeta couldn't believe someone could be that fast but was pressed with his back against the wall. Uub had him by the shoulder till every bone in his arm was broken. Then he loosened his grip again.

"You'll have to do much better than this, puny Human."

"If you say so."

Two red energy balls erupted from Uub's hands.

"Super Atomic Beam."

"Beam?"

The two energy balls split into six beams with an energy ball in the center of it. Gogeta was not able to block this new attack and all attacks exploded right on him creating a big explosion.

"Was that better? I really hope so," Uub joked as he left the ring.
